It's beginning...

 to look a lot like CHRISTMAS!!

Over the Thanksgiving weekend Eddie and I did a lot of window shopping and let me tell you... it is over-rated. We went to The District to walk around and burn off some calories from our Thanksgiving feast and they already had it all decorated for Christmas. They had Christmas lights galore and this massive tree:

They also had a horse and carriage:

On Sunday, we went to Courtney and Isaac's to help them decorate their house for Christmas and look who decided to be a big girl and sit up to play with her toys:

Eddie helped Isaac put up the lights outside, while I helped Courtney with the tree. We fluffed the tree, hung the ornaments and made the bows look pretty. The tree took us all day and we practically looked like pixies from all the glitter! The two of us (plus Grace) had fun decorating and listening to Christmas music while a pot of chili cooked.

Grace sat in awe of the big green thing:

Then decided she wanted to sit on it:

And touch it:

The finished product:

All of the Chirstmas decorations really got Eddie and I in the Christmas cheer so we decided that we would start a new Christmas tradition: a real Christmas tree! Neither of us have ever had a real Christmas tree so we are SUPER excited about it. We went and looked at trees and bought some really cool ornaments from Pier 1. We decided that we are going to put it up this weekend so we will post pictures of our tree soon!
